In this study, nanosized La1-xCaxFeO3 (0.00≤x≤0.40) compounds prepared via sol-gel method followed by heat treatment at 1100oC for 24 hours are studied. Crystal structure, microstructure, surface morphology and temperature-dependent resistivity of the samples are investigated. TEM investigation reveals nanoparticles with an average size of 35nm produced from the sol-gel process. The crystal structure of the compounds belongs to an orthorhombically distorted perovskite structure with Pbnm space group. Lattice distortion and cation size mismatch increase with an increase in Ca and particle and grain growth are suppressed by Ca doping. Electrical conduction is explained via thermally activated hopping of small polarons. Unit cell volume, charge ordering temperature, and activation energy for small polarons decrease linearly with an increase in cation size mismatch. Room temperature resistivity decreases with Ca doping and gets its minimum value for 30% Ca at which the orthorhombic distortion is maximum.

In this study, the double-layered Aurivillius phases CaBi2Ta2O9 (CBT) and PbBi2Ta2O9 (PBT) were prepared through a hydrothermal route with NaOH as a mineralizer. XRD analysis confirmed that the CBT and PBT compounds were successfully formed and adopted an orthorhombic crystal structure with an [Formula: see text]21am symmetry. Le Bail refinements of XRD data indicated that the unit cell volume of CBT was smaller than PBT and is associated with the smaller ionic radius of Ca[Formula: see text] compared to Pb[Formula: see text]. The surface morphology of both samples, as determined using SEM, demonstrated plate-like grains with anisotropic grain growth. It was found that the different ionic radii of [Formula: see text]-site cations (Ca[Formula: see text] and Pb[Formula: see text] strongly affected the structural, optical and electrical properties of the Aurivillius phase. The occupation of smaller Ca[Formula: see text] cations induced a higher structural distortion, which resulted in higher bandgap ([Formula: see text] energy and ferroelectric transition temperature ([Formula: see text] of CBT, compared to those of PBT.

Experimental evidence has confirmed that the mixed-ion effect (MIE) can be explained as a natural consequence of random ion mixing and that the cation size mismatch is not the only factor that determines the intensity of MIE.

Chemical strain effects arising from the large size mismatch between the two A-site cations results in a lowering of the symmetry from polar R3c to a polar Cc in Bi0.95Dy0.05FeO3.
